Welcome to PACE! Teaching is a true passion of mine. This year marks my thirteenth year as a teacher; I have spent two years in 5th grade, five years in 4th grade and this is my sixth year as the PACE Specialist!

I strongly believe that every child is unique and has their own set of talents and abilities. My teaching philosophy revolves around creating a supportive and inclusive classroom environment where each student can thrive academically, emotionally, and socially. I aim to foster a love for learning, curiosity, and critical thinking among my students, enabling them to become confident and independent learners.

I grew up in Coppell and went to college at Oklahoma State University. I graduated with a Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education. After graduation, I moved back to Texas and began working at Bethany Elementary in August 2012.

I live in Allen with my husband, two sons, and our doberman, Hugo. As a family, we love to try new restaurants, travel, see movies, and just spend time with one another. 

I am looking forward to a fantastic year of learning and growth with your children. Let's work together to make this school year an unforgettable one!
